#29360: Tor-Browser Linux: no audio playback (pulseaudio) --------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: tries | Owner: tbb-team Type: defect | Status: needs_information Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Applications/Tor Browser | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: --------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
Comment (by tries): The presense/requirement of the .pulse directory seems to depend on the pulseaudio version. * CentOS 6 with pulseaudio 0.9.21 does have these directories * CentOS 7 with pulseaudio 10.0 does NOT have them (there, things are located in $HOME/.config/pulse/ However, audio with tor-browser on CentOS 7 works fine, even without any links/copies of pulseadio related files. I tested 6.0, 7.5, 7.0, 7.5 and current 8.0 versions of tor-browser - my audio issue with CentOS 6 exists with all these versions (clean install of tor-browser). I have to admit, currently I have no idea why my audio did work at all before... But my best guess to get around this would be to place a symlink to the .pulse directory in the real home directory - if this directory should exists in the users $HOME (similar to what has been done in #9353). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29360#comment:7> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
